This of course is Jonathan Taylor Thomas, the fact that I can just put his initials shows how incredibly well known this kid is. JTT stars in the incredibly successful TV series "Home Improvement" and has many, many other credits to his name. Notably "Pinnochio", "Man About the House", "The Lion King", "Tom and Huck" etc, etc. The only thing I wish (and this is no criticism of JTT) is that he could have played some more 'dangerous' parts. All the roles he had really just called for an extension of "Home Improvement's" Randy and JTT has so much more to offer. With his talent and looks it would have been really nice to have seen him in something like "The Sixth Sense" or Mark Lester's "Night Hair Child" or "Our Mother's House", but I guess you have to take the roles that come along and it is easy to get typecast. Still there's plenty of time and maybe we will soon see JTT doing something really different.

Thanks to Colin Wilson for the following update. "In response to your comments about JTT, I am aware that he is in a couple of movies (one is called Common Ground) which have just been, or are about to be, released in the USA in which he plays characters very unlike Randy from Home Improvement. In both of these movies he plays gay characters (one a gay drug dealer !!)". Thanks to Colin and congratulations to JTT for having the guts to break the mould in such a courageous way - there's a lot of guys who would have chickened out from that.
